Hey everyone! 👋
It’s been a crazy stretch lately between traveling, healing up, and getting humbled on the court (again 😅). I’ve had a lot going on that I’m excited to share.
🙌1. On the Court
Unknowingly got pickled by the guitarist of Maroon 5, James Valentine, and went to his concert after. Shout out to my friend, Brian, who got tickets from James and brought me. They’re one of my favorite bands.
Played against some of the top players in Seattle (Thomas, James, Vivian, Brian) and got whooped even more. I can see why they’re pros.
Hip and ankle feeling way better after meeting with PT Romell of Back on Court. Life saver and should be ready for Worlds and 40 hour pickleball attempt.
Biggest takeaway: Treat everyone nice on and off the court. You never know who you’re meeting/playing with.
🌍 2. Off the Court
Said goodbye to my friends Susan and Kevin from Bellevue pickleball club and so many others from Seattle. Was an memorable 1.5 months there with great people. Don’t know when I will be back.
Finally made it home to Boston and felt so good to sleep in my own bed.
Saw my family for the first time in 3 months! Was really happy to see them and then I snuggled with my dog for 30 minutes. He’s 16 years old so have to do it while I can. Also saw some friends. I’m home for 3 days before hitting the road again.
Heading to Dallas for Worlds on Sunday! Volair has some exciting things cooking up there.
😂 3. This Week’s Laugh
I was super tired but decided to play a few games late night. I was delusional and sucked so bad that it was funny. I couldn’t stop laughing. Immediately went to bed after.
💡 4. Vinny’s Pick
Drinklits hydration tablets. Easiest way to get electrolytes and make water taste yummy.
🚀 5. What’s Next
Thank you all so much for following along! 🙏
I appreciate everyone that takes time to read and provide feedback. Until next time, keep playing hard, stay kind, and take care of your bodies. ❤️
Best,
Vinny
